I love you when you’re ugly
I love you when you’re beautiful
But when you break my heart
You're gone and no where to be found

You're hers, you're there’s
But mostly you're mine

When you’re in a good mood
You're awesome beyond compare
You're special you’re lovely
no Matter who cares

I care you're mine, you're my one
And only man you’re up and down
And handsome everywhere

Stay my lover, stay my man
Because you’re my one and only
Love. You're precious you're sweet

You promised me everything
Now that’s what I BEILEIVE!

I Miss You

I miss you
I miss Your smile
And I still shed a tear every once in a while
And even though we're different now,
You're still here some how
My heart won't let you go,
And I need you to know
I miss you,
Shalalalalala,
I miss you

Book review: Uglies
Uglies.jpg

I just read the book Uglies. It was written by: Scott Westerfeld. Uglies is about a girl, Tally Youngblood, who lives in a high-tech world where when you turn sixteen instead of getting your drivers license you get a surgery that turns you from an unattractive ugly to a perfect pretty. So Tally is two weeks from turning pretty and she meets Shay. Shay decides that she doesn’t want to turn pretty. So Shay runs away, and it is up to Tally to find Shay. So Tally has to find her way to Shay. But if she refuses to find Shay she will never be pretty. I give this book 5 stars.

When the lights go out at night all I can do is think of you

I hear your sorry words whisper into my ear
The soft words you have to say you try to make laugh, but I don’t
You told me to be good and not to go we both start to laugh
We no will I'll leave when you sleep
I will come back with more love then ever for you are my angel for you make me want to behave.

Dear JR,

If you're having trouble with a roommate at the house talk to your staff about what’s going on. If that doesn’t work just ignore them. If the person continues to bug you talk to them about it. If that still doesn’t work ask for a room change (if you are allowed to have room changes) or just sit down with the person and ask why they are bugging you. Or if they continue to bug you even after you’ve told the staff talked to them, walk away.

Book review G-Dog and the Homeboys


This book is a good book, it's about some gang members and a priest who they called G-dog. These gang members were known as Surenos and if they needed any help they asked the priest for help and he would help them in every way he can. One of the main guys was Turtle. He was doing a drive by and accidentally hit a 7 yr old girl. Later on he got caught by the police and had to go on trial and Father Goyle did everything in his power to help him out. But this book is a very good book it's inspiring to young gang bangers. I give it 5 stars.

Well, hello this is the tightest video game review of
all time. The game is called God of War. It is real fun,
it is mainly about Greek mythology. You play as a guy named
Crateos who is a regular guy who is a general in an army for Athens.
Then his brother dies in the mountains. He felt bad, because he tried to help
him so he decided to jump off Mount Olympus, but as he was falling
the goddess, Athena, saved him and gave him the power of the Greek
Gods. When you progress you get more powers, but you don’t start with any powers.
You start, you get the blades of Athens there's two blades attached to chains. The graphics are really good you will enjoy this game.

Book review: I’m doing my book review on My Bloody Life and Once A King Always a King. This book is by Reymundo Sanchez. This book is about a kid who was raped when he was a little boy in Puerto Rico. Then his family moved to Chicago and his mom got with a guy named Pedro. His mom’s boyfriend beat him and was in the illegal lottery. He had a son named Hector and he was a heroin dealer. Pedro got scared that he was going to get caught so they moved back to Puerto Rico. He moved back to Chicago with Hector. To make a long story short he became a Latin King and killed other gangs members. He would go and hurt people only when he was high or drunk. He then got out of the gang and the he met this girl and they got pulled over by a cop and his girl had a lot of drugs and he took the blame for it and went to prison. The part where he got for drugs was in Once A King Always A King. Most of his life he stays in prison and finally he gets out and turns his life around. That’s just a little of the story. I say you should read these books to find out what the rest of the story is about.
Kameron A.

Music review the song is real Jeeze by Eazy E. I think Eazy E is so cool he raps about real life and all the struggles of real hard times. He tells people about how it is in prison and how he doesn’t want to see people go there. He is a big inspiration of people’s life and he tries to help his fans. He also raps about how to stay off drugs. By Nick M.


The Illusionist
The Illusionist is in my opinion a very good movie with a great story line and an even better way of getting you on the edge of your seat. This movie has an amazing way of keeping you wondering what is going to happen next and an even better way of making you think. The entire movie is a love story in many ways and also in many ways it is a mystery movie. It’s a story of a man who learns magic tricks and illusions who falls in love with a girl. But the girl’s family is royal and his are peasants so they can’t be together. I won’t tell you the end, you have to see I your self, but I will tell you that you will never see it coming.
I give this movie 5 stars

Father Figure

Who is this stranger
Who knocks with hesitation,
Upon the screen door
Outside my house
He glances at his watch, anxiously
It is precisely 6:00
As it is every week

Who is this man,
Who sits across the table
At a local family diner
He glances at his watch again
He says we must hurry
As he does every week

Who is this image
Before my eyes
Who looks so much like me
I am careful of what I say
Not really sure why
His opinion should not matter
But it does
As it does every week

Who is this seemingly
Uncaring soul
Who stumbles over his words
Uncomfortably
Then attacks mine
In the next breath
And thinks that
He has the right
To do so,
As he does every week

Who is this child in the mirror
A teenager whose eyes
Usually shine
With the confidence of
Innocence
But now glance about
Unsure of anything
Especially
Her stepfather’s love
A child of divorce
And contemplating why
After he drops her off
As she silently cries
As she does every week

Well, I like 36mafia, because it is the best cd in the world in my own opinion. Well, my favorite song is on there it is called I Cant Even Be Doing It. And the reason I like it is because it reminds me of myself, because sometimes I tell girls that I can't be doing it like taken them out to eat, or go get their hair done and they just talk about how they can't take care of their girl friends or lady or what ever yall call them. Well, that is my favorite cd. song.

Today I am doing an opinion on dating at school. I think it should be cool with the staff unless one of the people attacks the other person. I’m sure that would happen a lot, but if not let the people do as they please. If one gets screwed over that is their problem, not the staffs and that’s my opinion . By: Tommy

Music Reviews

TechLiberate.jpg
I am a student from A.R.T.E.C. that would like to inform all of my fellow peers that they can experience many different types of music other than the type(s) they currently listen to.
But first, I would like to introduce myself. My name is Stevie Re’. I am a student from the A2 team.
The CD that I would like to introduce to you is Tech N9ne:Everready. I really enjoy this CD, because it relaxes me (In my own creepy ways).
This CD is great, because it has great beats that you can dance to. Plus, you will adapt to this type of music so fast you won’t even say you knew any other type.

Hi my name is Bianca. I’m 16 years old and I’m new here at Artec. I live in Rose Park SLC, Utah. I came from West High School. So far I don’t really like it here. It’s not the same as the school I went to, but I guess it’s not that bad. When I was at West I was in a behavior unit. I’ve been in a behavior unit since the 8th grade. It’s helped me a lot with my anger. I live with my mom and my dad.

March Horoscopes

Aries- Involvement in groups will be favorable and lead to valuable information. Don't let others bait you into arguments. You will be in the mood to socialize. There are ways of making extra cash if you put your mind to it.

Taurus- You could have a tendency to spend too much on your home or entertainment. Much knowledge can be obtained through the experiences you have. Large organizations may try to talk you out of your hard-earned cash. Family get-togethers will be interesting.

Gemini- People may be demanding, and entertainment could cost a lot more than you can really afford. You can make it up to them later. You can convince anyone of anything. Situations in your personal life are moving a little fast lately.

Cancer- Travel will promote new romantic encounters. Lacks of support and negativity have been the main problems. Changes in your home will be positive. Hassles with female colleagues may lead to problems with your boss.

Leo- Don’t deny yourself this month. Hide your cards and learn to say no. Deception and doubts may surround your involvement with friends and relatives. Don't be taken advantage of by any fast talking salesperson trying to part you from your cash.

Virgo- Educational pursuits can bring interesting, helpful people. You may find that depression is causing you to feel lonely and insecure. Deception and doubts may surround your involvement with friends and relatives. Raise your self-esteem and your confidence if you want to get back into the mainstream again.
